I agree - I'm on 56K, and run my comp + eDonkey + Firewall roughly 24 hours a day. Tis damned slow, but it's a great feeling to wake up one morning to see that 600Meg file finally finished
Of an evening, if I can be bothered and there's nothing screaming (I once got a whopping 5.7 Kbps) on the Donkey I fire up winMX and try for sub 20 meg files that take my fancy. Hardly ever completes though.
